Shell Helix Ultra 5W-40 – High-Performance Synthetic for Demanding Engines
Shell Helix Ultra 5W-40 is engineered for drivers and fleets needing robust protection under high loads and temperatures, while preserving engine cleanliness and performance. The fully synthetic base formulation combined with advanced additive systems delivers excellent oxidation stability, piston cleanliness and wear protection — especially important for turbocharged and direct-injection engines prone to LSPI. The product data identifies multiple OEM approvals and recommendations (API SP/SN, ACEA A3/B3; and many manufacturer standards such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche in relevant TDS material), making this oil suitable for a wide range of modern vehicles.

Key features

• LSPI protection for modern direct-injection petrol engines and robust turbocharger defense.

• High thermal & oxidation stability for long service intervals and minimal viscosity breakdown.

• Broad manufacturer approvals and ACEA/API compliance—good for mixed fleets and warranty compliance where 5W-40 is specified.

Ideal for: performance cars, high-mileage/towing applications, mixed petrol/diesel fleets, and vehicles that require 5W-40 with manufacturer approvals.
